How to Find My Substack
Tips for my subscribers to help improve your Substack user experience, please leave a comment if you have more questions!
When I write a Substack post, the majority of you access it in your email inbox. But that post is also available on my Substack homepage and will be easier to find again if you visit the source directly. Some of you have told me that you try to find past issues of my Friday Favorites or recipes by searching your email instead of heading directly to my Substack. Your user experience will be much better if you bookmark my Substack homepage or download the Substack app on your phone. Let’s walk through some options to make this easier for you!
Accessing Newsletter Content
Let’s start with your email inbox.
If you’re a subscriber, you’ll receive my Substack posts in your email inbox. To quickly find a newsletter, use your email inbox’s search bar—just look for emails from me, Smart In The Kitchen. If you need additional help, check out Substack FAQs for guidance on email delivery. Don’t forget to add me to your contacts to avoid missing updates or having them land in your spam folder! Here’s what the email will look like:
